Church Missions Team trying to send Tweets from Kenya
We setup a mobile device for our mission team. The phone number is here in the US, so the number in the profile is 40404, however, now he's in Kenya, trying to send text updates to Twitter. Can he use the international number? My impression is that any text he tries to send to will be dropped.
He's in Kenya - what number should he text to?
Should I remove this device, add it again, this time, saying his location is Kenya?
Please advise - we're trying to get tweets from the mission field for our church.

Inappropriate?You can try to use the international # +44 7624 801423 But... i suspect this is more a problem with your carrier. Can the person in Kenya text anyone else in the US? If not, they may not have international messaging set up. I would check with the carrier.

Inappropriate?Another thought. Does this person have web access on the phone in Kenya. If so, they can use m.twitter.com to post.

Inappropriate?OK MIke - the thing that worries me is on the Profile Settings for this Twitter account, of course, it has 40404 as the number, since he was here when we activated his phone before leaving. IN the Twitter Help docs, it says that if you try to send a txt to a number other that the one listed in your settings, it will drop.

Inappropriate?Mike, yeah, he has mobile access, but it's VERY $$$$.
